"Can I say you're my girlfriend on Facebook?"

It's Facebook's "lists" feature writ large, afaict. Good luck with that.

The "keep me posted" link returns a 404.

(error message "Error 404 (Not Found)!!1" look they're just regular internet dudes like us who use funny 1s with multiple !!!s - I already moaned about this crap somewhere else, probably irrational anger thread)

You know... I don't want to wish everybody I'm FB friends with a happy birthday. And I am not going to feel guilty about it, either, because I just don't care that much.

I got in; it actually looks p. great. But it's lonely. Where's the invites, already?

request google+ access

Got Google Buzz invites if anyone wants one.

Haha yeah in all honesty I suspect the bday reminder tool makes people lazy about birthday wishes. I mean I know I'm the worst offender at forgetting birthdays anyway but something about being reminded by FB feels in authentic.

The hilarity of it is emphasised by a friend who deliberately had his DOB as 01/01/70 so everyone was wishing him happy birthday in January... even people who should have known better!

I had a friend who changed his birthday to take place every three weeks, was pretty lol to go to his wall and see hundreds of birthday wishes all throughout the year

haha I considered doing that once but decided it would be kinda assholish and would prob make some nice people resent me

I do it the other way, every six months setting my birthday for six months ago.

you may have found the fountain of youth

I have been on Facebook for 1000 years.

haha i'm gonna try the birthday-every-month thing

u gonna get old fast, son

Not if he turns 25 every month

boom

WHY are they obsessed with getting me to chatz? That sidebar appears every 5 seconds no matter how many times I switch it off, and seems to float around taunting me. FUCKKKK OFFFFFF!

is anyone else noticing a bug where the # of 'likes' for certain things is absurdly high? one comment on a wall post has 287 likes atm. gf's account has the same bug, so I'm wondering how widespread it is.

i did notice that

I just thought my comments were really popular

so weird - saved a pic from the internet, tried to upload it to facebook via my hard drive and every time I do so it appends a caption from the site where it originated

guess facebook is trying to CYA

I think thats a site thing rather than a FB thing though I'm not sure - I've c&p'ed text from The Age paper and it appends a link to the article (grr) which I'd have to strip off. I see why they do it, but fuck it is annoying.

yeah but I didn't link to the site - I downloaded the image, then chose it from my hard drive. maybe it was reading some metadata or exif info?

Yeah thats what I mean. I wasnt pasting a link, I just cut and paste a bit of text out of an article and it did it!

ah yes. annoying and magical!

yeah that thing w/ the text is v crafty, a few websites do it now

drives me crazy

kind of a pain but if it's really annoying you can dl an exif editor and strip it out

Happens to me all the time.

Of course I'm copying and pasting the content from its original website to my company's website as a quote ala HuffPo, so I actually don't mind the link. Makes it easier for me to copy and paste that too.

omg

That's more YouTube material, imo.

fbook has gone MENTAL and shown me updates by all the people i ignore :/

Right now, they're not showing me anything.

But yeah, I hid a high school friend who had a sweet spot for some weird app game like Farmville. Thing is, her asinine posts still show up on the mobile version. I guess I'll just drop her, but if FB did its job, I wouldn't have to.

it's stopped now. phew.

Wouldn't let me post the last link I tried to - kept the text I'd written, deleted the link right off the bat, every time I tried.

So apparently Anonymous are planning on destroying Facebook on Nov 5.

My username is orvi✧✧✧.✧.jenk✧✧✧@hotm✧✧✧.c✧✧ and my password is ra5ca1. Have at it, Anonymous.

stoked for the madness

kinda shocked anon don't have a fb fan page tbh

Im stoked too. Only thing i would really miss would be contact info for all my friends.

What was funny was opening up the contacts in my HTC after I synced it with my Facebook account and realizing I suddenly have mobile numbers for all these people I don't even want to talk to via FB.
